O2 will offer 5 million tracks from Napster o2-Napster-mobile-music-downloads.phtml"target="_blank">The large European mobile phone carrier O2 has announced a partnership with Napster to "offer the UK's largest full Track mobile music download service."

There is however, one hitch. Your handset must have "O2 Active" to access
the Napster Mobile service, and so far it seems only 30 different handsets can
do so. For those who can however, the service will give users access to over
five million tracks and offer "dual delivery of tracks to both
the customer's mobile phone and PC via email."

The new partnership will provide individual tracks for 99p or 5 for £4 for a
promotional Period but there was no word on pricing after that period.
